Heavy vehicles changing destination u-turn on long rail crossings and perma-lock

Issue description

Somehow in this exact scenario I get haul trucks that just every now and then just decide to hop to one side under the pipe line from the middle of the crossing, doesnt seem to matter what else is in that area as the trucks just seem to ignore that that it isnt logically possible to jump to that area

in the screenshot below I added a thick chunk of barriers in the offending zone but it makes no difference whether they exist or not, the trucks do also occasionally attempt to navigate back out of the zone but this usually just results in them doing circles on top of the crossing and not actually going anywhere, presumably because they cant snap back into the middle of the crossing

Reproduction steps

unknown exactly, if the crossing is on-screen it doesnt seem like the issue occurs, seems as if it only occurs when the crossing and vehicles are off-screen, but could also be related to auto-save stutter?

it seems like this issue will happen when a haul truck decides to switch jobs mid-way across or when entering/exiting, seems like the trucks are already out of fuel when they get stuck there so it seems like they suddenly switch from finishing a landfil dump to going to a fuel station, often in the opposite direction to where they are in the middle of crossing

could it be the pause-and-wait-for-train behavior triggers a job change?

yep more or less confirmed how this occurs, assigned a haul truck to a storage, triggering a forced change in destination and it immediately ejected midway from another crossing
